How to survive the flight to Sanming?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your holiday in Sanming.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sanming?
The trick is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Sanming in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
